Almonds-In 2021, a study revealed that light-skinned postmenopausal women who ate just over two handfuls of almonds per day for almost six months experienced a reduction in the appearance of wrinkles and pigmentation. California Almonds provided some funding for the study, but it was conducted independently and to a high standard. Almonds provide more than enough antioxidant vitamin E (nearly 7 mg per 28g handful; more than enough to meet your daily needs) and are high in skin-friendly essential fatty acids.
Carrots-Carrots, along with other orange-red fruits and vegetables like tomatoes, red peppers, sweet potatoes, cantaloupe, and apricots, enhance the golden glow of (Caucasian) skin. They are all abundant in carotenoids, a kind of pigment that is found naturally. According to a study published in the journal Behavioral Ecology, this raised the opinion of facial attractiveness.
Raspberries, strawberries, blueberries-Rich berries are loaded with anthocyanins, which are strong anti-inflammatory and antioxidant compounds that prevent the deterioration of collagen. Additionally, anthocyanins seem to improve the health of gut flora, which may help prevent bone loss associated with aging.

White Fish-Any white fish, such as haddock or cod, is a great source of iodine, which is a nutrient that is lacking in the UK population (we are ranked seventh out of 10 countries in the world for iodine deficiency). Iodine is essential for maintaining healthy skin in addition to keeping your metabolism running strong.
Tomato Paste-More people are aware of the connection between tomatoes’ red lycopene pigment and a lower risk of heart attacks and strokes. However, lycopene also functions as a natural sunscreen by preventing wrinkles and sunburn by acting on our cells. Cooking tomatoes increases their lycopene content, so enjoy tomato paste, passata, and canned tomatoes.
Olive Oil-In a study involving Australians, Greeks, and Swedes, those who consumed more monounsaturated fat—especially olive oil—showed less signs of wrinkles in the back of their hands, an area that is exposed to the sun, compared to those who preferred butter and margarine. Pulses and vegetables were also associated with reduced wrinkles.

Peas, beans, lentils and legumes-A possible explanation for pulses’ (legumes’) potential to prevent wrinkles and skin damage is that they naturally contain phytoestrogens, or plant oestrogens. Certain data indicates that these may help to enhance the skin’s moisture content and shield skin cells from oxidative damage.
